Hey guys and gals!
I did a quick search through here and didn't seem to find any other threads directly answering my question so I really hope this wasn't taken up before but here goes...
I managed to harvest some Sierra Nevada Bigfoot yeast from a bottle I had and used it for a DIPA I brewed on sunday. It took some time to get going at first (@ 24 hours, normally my brews take off in about less than 12) and all seemed well. Then I came home today from being out and my whole apartment smells like sulfury rotten eggs. I was just wondering if any one has any experience with SN yeasts and maybe this is just normal (please let this be normal). I plan on moving it up to my storage room so the smell can be there instead but I'm really hoping its just the yeast and not an infection...
In case anyone is wondering, I also posted this on reddit.com/r/homebrewing
